The DS is only selling shitloads because they are always having these deals for the consoles.

Like in Toys R Us where I work.
Every week there is some deal for DS consoles and NONE for PSP. WHAT THE HELL SONY? Seriously?
Week after Week parents come in buying DS consoles, and most of them buying them for kids.

Kids need a PSP, it has a awesome library of games that deserve to sell well but don't. Makes me sick.

# shift — alooper 2010-12-13 17:49
these things are so full of shift, every big publisher gets a handfull of winning, sometimes it seems like if a game fails they invent a category to help it be some kind of best of something. other than RDR and Mass Effect i don't belive any game listed here deserves to be the best of whatever.

What a joke.

And lol @ modracers all over the place.

I didn't think that game was that bad, but everybody seems to hate it.

Industry insiders and conglomerate self congratulation IMO.
